We are currently designing a character based logo package for Grand Pacific Resorts in Carlsbad, California. The client has given Koerce Media complete creative control, which is glorious;) Their only request is that the character is a cool looking beach primate. This request instantly reminded us of our childhood love affair with the greatest surfing game of all time, Town & Country Surf Designs for NES. Stay tuned for a few concept sketches.
"For as long as I can remember, I have always had a passion for building things. Legos and Lincoln Logs occupied my time as a youngster, but as I grew older and my construction techniques progressed, I sought out new and unusual materials that would allow my imagination to run wild. Then, one lazy afternoon while watching movies I was inspired by an unusual lamp and my artistic career was born. Lamps led to clocks, small tables, chandeliers and my first attempt at robots.” - Brian Marshall (http://abduzeedo.com/adoptabots-brian-marshall)

Only negative, this site will consume your day. Almost too many ads;)
